I hear what you are saying but surely this happens in all business. Look at Pimlico Plumbers or any big firm. Charge silly money but you are still getting the same bloke tightening up the connections on your distribution board.

We try and sell ourselves at being better than our competitors when in all honesty out workmanship (as a company) is only as good as the sparks doing the job on that particular day. This is what the NICEIC have done and done well.

good old Charlie Mullins, you've got to take your hat off to that bloke. I don't know how he gets away with it lol
 
While reading all the replies, I can understand why engineer54 is frustrated with it being so easy to become approved contractor status, as it almost takes the nobility out of being accredited with something which was once extremely highly regarded at being the best at what we do. A part of me feels disappointed, that if and when I become AC status, it won't hold the same prestige or meaning as it once did in the eyes of electrical engineers and technicians who obtained there's when it did. I would like you all to know that even though I'm not the most experienced electrician or the most skilled (yet) my quality of work and conformance with BS7671 is of paramount importance to me, so hopefully engineer54 I'm not the only one and it is still important to the "New School" electricians to become of a standard which would please the "old school".
